When disaster strikes the United States, pet owners must be prepared to handle emergency situations and to evacuate with their pets.
If you are instructed to leave your home during a disaster, ALWAYS take your pets with you. If it's not safe for you—it's not safe for your pet. Also, you never know when you will be able to return to your home.
Finding a Safe Place to Go
During a crisis, local public disaster shelters and hotels may (or may not) allow pets. If possible, call ahead so you know if you must make other arrangements to avoid you and your pet being stranded in the face of an emergency.
As disaster approaches, bring all pets into the house so you won't have to search for them if you need to leave quickly. Make sure all pets are wearing collars and have updated identification tags.
Have an Evacuation Kit Ready to Go
Keep your contents ready in an easy-to-carry, water-proof container so your pets will have all the comforts of home during this stressful time. Make sure to include:
A first aid kit. Include scissors, flea comb, tweezers, pliers, hemostats, magnifying glass, nail clippers, Tourniquet, cotton balls and swabs, bandage material and tape, eye dropper, oral syringe, thermometer, lubricating jelly, disposable gloves, splints, emergency ice and heat packs, and liquid dish soap.
Useful medications include activated charcoal, alcohol, betadine, eye rinse, triple antibiotic ointment, eye ointment, hydrogen peroxide, Benadryl, cortisone ointment, sterile saline, antidiarrheal liquid or tablets and ear cleaning solution. Always include any prescription medications your pet may be taking.
One week supply of food and water with non-spill dishes, utensils and a manual can opener.
Cages or carriers for each pet.
Bedding and toys for each pet.
Litter-pan, litter and scoop if you have cats.
Copy of veterinary records and proof of ownership. Include a picture of each pet.
Extra collars, leashes and ID tags for each pet.
Muzzles and restraints should be included as pets may become anxious or fractious during an emergency.
Emergency contact numbers, including relatives, veterinary clinic, animal shelters, pet-friendly motels and poison control center.
Instructions for each pet (in the event you are unable to care for your pet) including feeding and medication details.
A pre-signed medical treatment authorization to aid rescuers if your pet must be treated during your absence.
Miscellaneous items: trash bags, paper towels, flashlight, batteries, radio, maps should be included in every kit.

Uh-oh! Some right-wingers might not like the pope's latest tweet!
Pat Cunningham
It says HERE that the pontiff had a particular situation in mind:
Pope Francis on Wednesday condemned as "slave labour" the conditions for hundreds of workers killed in a factory collapse in Bangladesh and urged political leaders to fight unemployment in a sweeping critique of "selfish profit".
The pope said he had been particularly struck by a headline saying workers at the factory near Dhaka were being paid just 38 euros ($50) a month.
"This is called slave labour!" the pope was quoted by Vatican radio as saying in his homily at a private mass in his residence to mark ...

Graco recall: 3.8 million car seats have faulty buckles
Graco recall involves 3.8 million car safety seats that could trap children with buckles that may not unlatch. The Graco recall includes seats manufactured over the past five years, and some regulators say the recall should be even larger.
| Detroit
Graco is recalling nearly 3.8 million car safety seats because children can get trapped by buckles that may not unlatch. But the company has drawn the ire of federal safety regulators who say the recall should include another 1.8 million rear-facing car seats designed for infants.
The recall covers 11 models made from 2009 through 2013 by Graco Children's Products Inc. of Atlanta. It's the fourth-largest child seatrecall in U.S. history, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the government's road safety watchdog.
The agency warned that the problem could make it "difficult to remove the child from the restraint, increasing the risk of injury in the event of a vehicle crash, fire or other emergency."
NHTSA also criticized Graco in a sternly-worded letter dated Tuesday, saying the recall excludes seven infant car seat models with the same buckles. Both the company and NHTSA have received complaints about stuck buckles on the infant seats, the agency said.
"Some of these consumers have had no choice but to resort to the extreme measure of cutting the harness straps to remove their child from the car seat," the NHTSA letter said.
The agency wants Graco to identify the total number of seats that potentially have the defect and explain why it excluded the infant seats. NHTSA, which began investigating the seats in October of 2012, said the investigation remains open. The agency said it could hold a public hearing and require Graco to add the infant seats.
Graco, a division of Atlanta-based Newell Rubbermaid, told The Associated Press that its tests found that food or beverages can make the harness buckles in the children's seats sticky and harder to use over time.
Rear-facing infant seats aren't being recalled because infants don't get food or drinks on their seats, Graco spokeswoman Ashley Mowrey said. But Mowrey said Graco will send replacement buckles to owners of infant seats upon request.
Mowrey said the company has issued cleaning tips for the buckles, and began sending replacement buckles to owners last summer.Graco is also sending instructions for how to replace the buckles and posting a video on its website to show parents how to replace them.
In documents sent to NHTSA, Graco estimated that less than 1 percent of the seats involved in the recall have had buckles that were stuck or difficult to unlatch.
Mowrey said there have been no reported injuries due to the defect.
Parents should check seat buckles and contact Graco for a free replacement, NHTSA said. The agency also said people should get another safety seat for their children until their Graco seat is fixed.
NHTSA, in the letter to Graco, also accused the company of soft-pedaling the recall with "incomplete and misleading" documents that will be seen by consumers. The agency threatened civil penalties and said that Graco should delete from its documents "any statements that may lead the public to discount the seriousness of the safety risk presented by this defect."
In addition, NHTSA said that last month, it started investigating four models of Evenflo child safety seats, which have a design similar to the recalled Graco seats and may use buckles made by the same manufacturer, AmSafe Commercial Products Inc. of Elkhart, Indiana.
"NHTSA is also in contact with AmSafe to identify any additional child seat manufacturers that use harness buckles of the same or similar design," NHTSA's statement said.

I am an independent contractor and, as such, I interview 3-4 times a year for new gigs. I am in the midst of that cycle now and got turned down for an opportunity even though I felt like the interview went well. The same thing has happened to me a couple of times this year.
Now, I am not a perfect guy and I don't expect to be a good fit for every organization. That said, my batting average is lower than usual so I politely asked my last interviewer for some constructive feedback, and he delivered!
The main thing, according to the interviewer, was that I seemed to lean too much towards the use of abstractions (such as LINQ) rather than towards lower-level, organically grown algorithms.
On the surface, this makes sense—in fact, it made the other rejections make sense too because I blabbed about LINQ in those interviews as well and it didn't seem that the interviewers knew much about LINQ (even though they were .NET guys).
So now I am left with this question: If we are supposed to be "standing on the shoulders of giants" and using abstractions that are available to us (like LINQ), then why do some folks consider it so taboo? Doesn't it make sense to pull code "off the shelf" if it accomplishes the same goals without extra cost?
It would seem to me that LINQ, even if it is an abstraction, is simply an abstraction of all the same algorithms one would write to accomplish exactly the same end. Only a performance test could tell you if your custom approach was better, but if something like LINQ met the requirements, why bother writing your own classes in the first place?
I don't mean to focus on LINQ here. I am sure that the JAVA world has something comparable, I just would like to know why some folks get so uncomfortable with the idea of using an abstraction that they themselves did not write.
Update: As Euphoric pointed out, there isn't anything comparable to LINQ in the Java world. So, if you are developing on the .NET stack, why not always try and make use of it? Is it possible that people just don't fully understand what it does?
Related: "Does the usage of LINQ and Lambda Expressions lead to less readable code?"
Answer: Leaky Fanboys (43 Votes)
I don't think it's the use of abstractions per se that's objectionable. There are two other possible explanations. One is that abstractions are all leaky at one time or another. If you give the impression, correct or not, that you don't understand the underlying fundamentals, that might reflect poorly in an interview.
The other possible explanation is the fanboy effect. If you talk excitedly about LINQ, and repeatedly bring it up in an interview with a company who doesn't use it and has no current plans to do so, that gives the impression that you would be dissatisfied or even disgruntled working with older technologies. It can also give the impression that your enthusiasm for one product has blinded you to alternatives.
If you truly think you would be happy in a non-LINQ shop, try asking about what they do use, and tailor your answers accordingly. Show them that while you prefer LINQ, you are competent using whatever tools are at hand.
Answer: Code-osaurs (12 Votes)
Some .NET programmers, particularly those coming from either a classic VB/ASP or a C++ background, don't like new stuff like LINQ, MVC, and Entity Framework.
Based on what I've observed, the ex-VB'ers in this group are likely to still be using data access layers and other code originally written 10+ years ago. They'll also use old buzzwords like "n-tier" and the like and not really understand anything at all about anything beyond .NET Framework 2.0 nor are they wanting to learn anything about it.
The C++'ers tend to be academically oriented programmers who love coding cool algorithms, even if it means re-inventing the wheel. They hate depending on anything they didn't hand code themselves. A few of these people also delight in making interviewees feel inferior, especially those with a less traditional background.
You're likely to run into organizations like this when you're interviewing. But, you'll also run into some who are using newer methods. Don't let a few bad interviews throw you off.

The cookies themselves are simply chocolate shortbread made with cocoa powder. The recipe made a crumbly dough which needed to rest in the refrigerator for at least a few hours before being rolled. Once rolled into a thin sheet, the dough was cut into one and a half inch rounds. The baked rounds were then filled with a rich chocolate truffle cream made from 65 percent cacao chocolate, heavy cream, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla. I actually went to the trouble of putting the truffle cream in a piping bag so as to swirl it onto the sandwich cookie bottoms. Ordinarily, I run screaming from piping bags, but these petite cookies just begged for the added attention to detail. The sandwich tops were to have been dusted with cocoa powder, but I used the last of mine to make the cookie dough. Instead, I dusted the tops with espresso powder.
The cookies were sturdy but yielding. Bigger versions of them would be perfect for ice cream sandwiches. They had just the right amount of chocolate flavor, and I had to remind myself that they were meant to be filled and sandwiched and not just eaten out of hand. Thankfully, I restrained myself well enough to have plenty left to fill. Now, the highlight, the truffle cream, was ridiculous. It was silky and richly chocolaty and maintained a lightness even after the finished cookies had sat in the refrigerator overnight. I'm already planning alternate flavor infusions for the ganache for the next time I make this truffle cream to fill cookies. Although, I may have to spend some time perusing the book's chocolate drinks chapter or the ice cream chapter before I make it back to the cookies for a second time.

THE LONG anticipated twenty-year wait is over for Riplinger's compilation of the King James Bible's built-in dictionary. The over 2,000 definitions in this new Dictionary arise from the immediate context and are "line upon line Isa 28:10. The Holy Bible provides its own dictioNEARy, giving 'near words with near meanings.'
"Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law" Ps 119:18.
SEE just a few examples which demonstrate that the Bible defines its own words in the context, using parallelisms with identical words.
And immediately...and anon Mark 1:28-30

THE TWO WORDS define each other, thereby multiplying the number of definitions in this Dictionary by the thousands. The rich vocabulary of synonyms expand one's vocabulary and thereby enhance the reader's ability to 'think,' since words are the tools used for thinking.
The Holy Bible uses similitudes (Hos 12:10). God repeats a thought, using similar words. For example, 2 Cor 4:10, 11 says, "the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body…the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh. Repeated words or parts of speech confirm a parallelism, as seen in this example. God uses the word 'shadow' to describe how he sometimes teaches (Heb 8:5). A word has its accompanying shadow to reveals its form.
"Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual" 1 Cor 2:13. The Holy Ghost teaches by comparing spiritual words with other spiritual words. "Man's wisdom" mars many Bible margins, interlinears and lexicons with secular and often dangerous definitions. God included his own built-in dictionary in his word, so that he, not man, would determine just what he means.
THE BIBLE itself answers questions many have had about controversial words such as "Easter" (Acts 12:4) and "replenish" (Gen 1:28). Prompted by questions from callers over the years, the Dictionary includes some mini-essays summarizing how a word was used throughout the Bible. Exhaustive entries include words such as 'Easter,' 'broided,' 'plaiting,' 'dragon,' 'baptism,' 'wine,' and 'enchantment.' You will discover things such as 'intreat' does not mean the same thing as 'entreat.'
Rejoice as you read over 2,000 of God's pearls of provision, sometimes passed over unnoticed, like a treasure hid in a yield. "And all the people went their way to eat, and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great mirth, because they had understood the words that were declared unto them" Neh 8:12.
P.S. Your card will not be charged until your order is shipped, which may take longer than usual, due to the avalanche from this Dictionary that has already begun burying us under. Your patience will be appreciated. Please pray for us. We are sorry that we do not have the staff to answer phone or email inquiries about pending orders or give tracking status. Running to the phone and answering emails takes us away from packing and shipping your book. We are not the Amazon river, but more like a trickling creek...

Through images and words, Dale winner will explore Old West
From the May 8, 2006, Princeton Weekly Bulletin
Although it was the mid-1990s when Mimi Chubb's family moved from Brooklyn to California's Orange County, the pioneer spirit of the Old West was still alive and well.
Chubb, now a Princeton senior, quickly grew fascinated with horses, cowboy gear and other symbols of the "authentic" American West after moving cross-country to Irvine, Calif., at age 11. She will engage these interests through a year of traveling and writing about Western imagery as the 2006 winner of the Martin Dale Fellowship.
The $27,500 fellowship is awarded annually to a graduating senior to allow him or her "to devote the year following graduation to an independent project of extraordinary merit that will widen the recipient's experience of the world and significantly enhance his or her personal growth and intellectual development."
Chubb, an English major and certificate candidate in creative writing, plans to write a collection of five essays on her observations of Western culture. The project, titled "Fantasy, Authenticity and Identity: Imagining the American West," will allow Chubb to explore her own feelings of connection to the West while observing and writing about people and subjects that "haunt and fascinate" her.
"My cookie-cutter suburban neighborhood was as dissimilar as could be to an Old West boomtown, but we nevertheless spent months on end in elementary school studying the Gold Rush, as if it were holy lore," Chubb wrote in her Dale application. "Sometimes we even panned for fool's gold in patches of mud that had been carefully stocked by our teacher and a few parent volunteers, who also handed us Dixie cups full of baked beans.
"I grew up riding horses — symbols of the West for me and for many others — and my obsession with everything about them propelled me into various communities of horse people, many of whom would wear cowboy hats and vanity license plates on their pickups printed with phrases like 'COWGRRL,' regardless of whether they had ever ridden in a Western saddle," she wrote. "None of this ever really made sense to me when I was growing up, although the people I knew seemed to assume that it would."
For her Dale project, Chubb will travel around California and surrounding states with an aim "to focus on the ways in which these myths and fantasies create identities and create 'the real' for some people."
She first plans to study a group of Californians who adopt wild mustangs from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, through which she will explore the concept of "wildness" in the West. She then will look at ways in which the Old West is marketed by following the Miss Rodeo America pageant through California to its final round in Las Vegas, "which promises to be a riot of big teased curls and flashy Western fashions."
Chubb also hopes to engage members of the Mojave Muleskinners, an Old West re-enactment group, and the American Mountain Men, an organization dedicated to preserving "manly" Old West traditions. She also will examine the continuing lure of ghost towns among visitors, preservationists and commercial developers. Finally, she will delve into the world of cowboy poetry, "which has become a powerful, insider-centered genre for imagining the West, its history and its future that has a vibrant community of readers."
The Dale project will allow Chubb to pursue longer, more literary writing projects and hone her journalistic skills, building on the considerable experience she has gained as a Princeton student.
"It's going to be just wonderful," Chubb said. "What's so exciting about the Dale Fellowship is the opportunity to focus on this one thing that I want to do so much. It is very hard to fit [writing] in against a background of a lot of other activities and classes."
Chubb has won numerous awards for her writing and academic accomplishments, including the Class of 1870 Junior Prize for the best junior English scholar in 2005 and the Shapiro Prize for Academic Excellence in 2004. For her senior thesis, she wrote a novel that centers on a "megachurch" whose leaders and members are defined by their sense of Western identity and values. The characters were based on people she observed while attending an Orange County megachurch last summer, with funding from the English department's A. Scott Berg Award for summer research.
Chubb's thesis adviser was the novelist Chang-rae Lee, a professor in the Council of the Humanities and creative writing. Lee is one of several acclaimed writers on the University faculty with whom Chubb has studied, including Joyce Carol Oates, Edmund White and C.K. Williams.
Author and editor Wendy Lesser, a visiting professor at Princeton last year, also has had a significant influence on Chubb — publishing two of Chubb's essays in her literary magazine, The Threepenny Review.
"Her work is subtle and complex without ever being obscure or pretentious, and she has a mastery of tone that I have rarely seen in any student — in fact, in anyone under about 35 or 40," said Lesser, who taught Chubb in a course on "Autobiography and Criticism."
"She was a great writer when she came into my class and a great writer when she left it; all I had to do was stand aside and let her go," Lesser said.
Chubb also spent two years as a reporter for The Daily Princetonian and worked as an editor for three campus literary publications. She twice served as a summer intern for The New Yorker, reviewing fiction submissions "and learning a lot about how they develop their pieces," she said.
Chubb may pursue graduate studies after completing her Dale project, but knows that writing is her ultimate career goal.
Lesser said, "She has the talent and she also has the drive — not the obnoxious careerist-ambition kind of drive, but the down-to-earth willingness to work very hard until she gets something right. I have already mentioned her name to several editors in New York and told them to watch for her work in the future."

The Mozilla Corporation & its subsidiary, the Mozilla Corporation, developed Mozilla Firefox, or simply Firefox, a free and open-source web browser. Firefox displays web pages using the Gecko rendering engine, adhering to current and future web standards. It is a significant player in the market.
Mozilla Firefox was created in 2002 under the code name "Phoenix" by Mozilla community members who wanted more than a single program in their Mozilla Application Suite bundle. Firefox's beta version gained popularity with testers and was praised for its speed, security, and add-ons compared to Microsoft's then-dominant Internet Explorer 6.
In 2004, Mozilla released Firefox, challenging Internet Explorer's dominance. In nine months, Firefox had been downloaded more than 60 million times. Firefox is the successor of Netscape Navigator as it was created by Netscape in 1998 before its acquisition by AOL.
Firefox comes with a few useful features. For example, Firefox has tabbed browsing with individual processes per tab, a built-in pop-up blocker, private browsing, phishing detection, and a sandbox security model. One feature of Firefox that's vital to some users is that it works on multiple platforms.

Ky. man auctioning rare comic book collection
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The first glimpses of iconic heroes Superman, Batman and Flash are part of a rare comic book collection a Kentucky man is auctioning off to the highest bidders.
Paducah insurance executive John C. Wise decided it was time to sell the collection he's been accumulating over three decades, revisiting a childhood pastime that he picked up again in the 1980s after he became established in his career.
"I think it's a good timing for the market, and good timing for me at age 62," said Wise, who moved to Kentucky from his hometown of Rockford, Illinois, to attend college. "It's not like I'm not going to take them with me."
The books Wise is auctioning sold for as little as 10 cents when they were published, many in the late 1930s and 1940s. Some of the issues in good condition can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars. He is auctioning about 175 comics individually, and online bidders have already committed about a half-million dollars to the auction, which ends Tuesday.
Among the offerings is a pristine issue of Flash Comics No. 1 from 1940, which tells the story of how college student Jay Garrick gained super-human speed by inhaling fumes in a lab accident.
"This copy is in incredible high-grade condition and is the second-best copy known to exist," comic book expert Vincent Zurzolo said in an email message. Zurzulo is co-owner of New York-based ComicConnect.com, the online auction house that is selling Wise's collection.
By Friday evening, the bidding on that book alone had reached $91,000. Bids on the first editions of Superman, Batman and the Flash from Wise's collection totaled $218,000 on Friday.
Wise first started collecting comics at age 12, and sold his first collection to buy a car as a teenager. He picked up the hobby again later in life, and started frequenting Comic-Con in San Diego, where he eventually bought a second home.
Wise and Zurzolo said the exploding popularity of super heroes in movies and TV make it an opportune time to capitalize on valuable comics.
"The blockbuster movies are bringing in new collectors and investors into the vintage comic market on a daily basis," Zurzolo said.
Wise is also selling a copy of Action Comics No. 1, which is the debut of Superman and is considered the birth of the comic book super hero. A well-preserved copy of the 1938 comic sold for a record $2.1 million in 2011. Zurzolo said there are fewer than 100 copies of the issue in existence.
Wise said he's hoping the proceeds from the auctions will help him buy a new home in San Diego and fund college tuitions for his seven grandchildren.
"My daughters would rather inherit than collect comic books," he said.

Beautiful concurrency
I am writing a chapter for a book called "Beautiful code", edited by Greg Wilson. The chapter is a tutorial about Software Transactional Memory in Haskell.
After a lot of useful feedback, I have now completed Version 2 of the paper. The Haskell code is also available.
I would welcome any comments or questions you have on the paper, or constructive suggestions for improving it; the more concrete the better. You can see what people said about version 1 on the version 1 talk page: Talk:SantaClausProblem .
The book is aimed at a general audience of programmers, not Haskell geeks, so I have tried to explain everything necessary as I go along. So if you are not a Haskell expert, your input would be particularly valuable to me.
You can email me directly (firstname.lastname@example.com), or add Wiki talk notes below.
If you give your real name somewhere in your text (or email it to me), I'll add you to the acknowledgements at the end of the chapter. Notably, I'd like to acknowledge Steven807, Tibbe, Fanf, Garious, Rycee, Brecknell, Mvanier, Gaal, Fernando, Gknauth, EngineerScotty, BoAdler.
Simonpj 14:26, 22 December 2006 (UTC) To add a note, begin with four tilde signs ~~~~; the Wiki will fill in your user name and date.
Brecknell 13:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC) In Figure 1, retry should be STM a, not STM ().
Sylvain 13:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC) small points: since you go through explaining that the do-notation is overloaded and works for STM as well as IO (page 8), you might want to tell the same for return on page 11 (return being given with a type a -> IO a on page 5). There is also a double "Here is the code" at the bottom of page 17.
Brecknell 13:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC) The rewrite of the paragraph at top of page 17 has left behind a fragment that I think just needs to be deleted: "just runs each of the actions in sequence".
Brecknell 14:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC) Last sentence of page 18: "Here is another way approach that..." Delete either "way" or "approach".
ArthurVanLeeuwen minor stuff, really: page 2, middle of page: syncrhonized -> synchronized page 5, top of page: For example, here are two Haskell functions -> For example, here are the type signatures for two Haskell functions (the functions themselves may be primitives, after all) page 5, second paragraph: do the parentheses around hPutStr serve more than to confuse? Especially given their absence for hEchoLine... page 5, footnote 3: comma after effects page 6: make discarding the return value of forkIO in the second example main more explicit, e.g. with a footnote page 7, after Atomicity: This ensured -> This ensures

Today's Music: Shawn Colvin – All Fall Down
So this weekend, my girl and I spent a day volunteering for Sandy recovery.
We showed up at a church at 520 Clinton Ave in Brooklyn to lend a hand.
We get there and spend 15 minutes waiting to sign in. We write our names on a piece of tape and stick it to our jackets. (The registration is so that we can be on the mailing list. Glad we weren't wasting time…)
We go into the pen where we are to wait for the volunteer orientation, and we have a chance to look over the place.
Towers of clothes, water, supplies, tools. Boxes of gear needed to clean up affected areas and give necessities to those that need them.
The entire operation was staffed by volunteers, and looked like a drunk walking – the rear foot constantly throwing the body off balance, the front foot catching it just in time, and repeat.
In fact, what I was most surprised by is how organized they were, and how people actually seemed to be in charge. Past volunteer experiences seemed to be more along the lines of "show up, and if you see something that needs to be done, do it".
That seems to work well enough, since people that show up do want to help, and anyone that survives the turmoil for an hour or two becomes defacto leader until they move on and someone else takes over.
But it was nice to see an overall plan being implemented.
So after 5 minutes of sitting waiting for orientation, I learned two things:
– While I try to be open minded and not judge people on appearances, it's very hard with hipsters.
– Especially when said hipster gets me to do something I'm not particularly keen on, and then offers encouragement wrapped around the word "jam" for the next 10 minutes.
Sitting in a chair with about 6 other people, groovy hipster comes over and shouts "Does anyone have cooking experience? We need help in the kitchen".
Picture a simultaneously scowling and sneering El Guapo raising his hand.
While I cooked for a living for many years, it is not high on my list of fun things to do in a production environment. My girl and I had been hoping to lend a hand at the Rockaway Beach area. We surf there, and really like the neighborhood, so this would be a good "give back" kind of thing.
But this was also volunteering. And if they needed cooks…
So I said sure, gave a quick run down of my experience, and we follow the guy. Who must have seen my expression. Because i was subject to a litany of encouraging phrases along the lines of "It'll be cool. You can make the cooking your Jam." "Once you start, you know, you'll be in your Jam." "After your Jam is going, it'll be great".
Gee, and to think I'm not such a fan of people. Meh.
So my girl and I and one other go down to the kitchen. Sal is doing a bang up job as the chef, cranking out hundreds of meals from a small kitchen, with a 6 burner stove and 2 shelf oven to work with.
This isn't gruel or slop. This is good food made almost entirely with donated ingredients.
But he's weeded (ridiculously busy). And that small kitchen is hot.
Sal (after a moment of our recruiter trying to get his attention): EVERYONE WHO ISN'T COOKING SOMETHING RIGHT NOW, GET. OUT."
Understood. He isn't being a jerk. He's trying to get a job done. Having been on both sides of that when cooking, I know where he's coming from, and fade back into the small auditorium outside the kitchen, now a massive prep kitchen.
And start peeling a literal ton of vegetables.
The highlights:
– Try and donate potatoes larger than a fat thumb. Seriously. Almost more trouble than it's worth to peel them.
– Try to donate carrots that aren't flaccid. Also easier to peel.
– Donate peelers. Really. Having thirty isn't helpful when twenty five of them are junk.
– Don't slice your finger while opening pumpkins.
– Listen to the conversations around you. At one point, Phil (a restaurateur from Connecticut) asked Heather (a Sandy regular from Vermont) about composting.
Heather launched into a detailed five minute explanataion of why they weren't composting, how terrible it was that organic trash had been mixed with non-organic, the difficulties of finding compost pickup in Brooklyn, and how wonderful composting is.
Phil listened, and when Heather wound down, said "Oh, I don't really care." and went back to what he was doing.
Took me about a minute to stop laughing.
In the end, it really was a productive day. While it wasn't my first choice of how to spend it, it was a useful necessary task. The people that will be getting the food will be very happy they did.
But next time, I think I'll try to get in the group that's clearing debris by the beach.
Oh, and the only sad part? After all that, I still didn't win the lottery Saturday night.
(But in all seriousness, the organizers and volunteers all seemed to be working, and it was for a good cause for people that still do need the help.)

When he called he said he was having "carpal tunnel problems". That's fine, I can handle that.
But when he came in, all he wanted to talk about was his neck pain.
I can handle that, too. But I asked him why he'd said he was having carpal tunnel problems when he called.
He said "because the carpal tunnel is in the neck".
When I tried to correct him, he argued with me, then walked out. Said he was going to "find a doctor who knows his damn anatomy."

How do I sign up (as an entrepreneur)?
Go to www.FundingPost.com. Click Entrepreneur, then click Sign Up.
(There is also an Entrepreneur link on the top of the left navigation.)
How much is it?
How does it work?
Basically, you sign up, list your company profile (description, video, business model, market size, etc.) with your contact information. Investors then log in and view the company summaries. They can then contact you directly through the system.
Is my profile open to the public to see?
No - It is not open to the public. It is Only available to our investor members with a username and password.
Who can see my company profile on FundingPost?
Only Venture Capital Firms, Corporate Venture Funds and Accredited Angel Investors. We do Not allow Brokers, Investment banks, Service Providers, or even other entrepreneurs to read the company summaries. Our Investor Section is for Real Investors only.
Do you take stock?
No - we don't take stock or a percentage of anything you raise through our network. We are not a Broker-Dealer. We only charge the listing fees.
How many listings are up there at one time?
About 500-700 are active at any given time. Investors can search via several criteria (industry, stage, location, keyword, geographic preference, etc.) so your company won't get lost in the shuffle.
How many Investors do you have?
Over 7,500 and new Investors sign up all the time. We currently represent over $107.69 Billion in angel and venture capital.
I am an Investor - How do I view the deals?

Do you Guarantee Funding?
No!! FundingPost only shows your company to investors. We cannot guarantee they will want to invest in what you are doing. Raising capital is not easy, and the odds are stacked against you. You can run a software company in the heart of Silicon Valley and funding is still not guaranteed.

Another scene I don't understand from the memoir of the man who claims to have been a child soldier
On this site I try to keep reviews short enough that you can read them in a minute if you skip the supplemental material at the end, so I'll often give one example instead of three or choose a brief quote from a book instead of a long one. But enough questions have been raised about the credibility of Ishmael Beah's A Long Way Gone that I'd like to mention a scene from it that didn't appear in my original review. In this scene Beah talks about continuing to fight after receiving "many bullet wounds" and about foot injuries don't appear to have left him with a limp or a need to use a cane.
Beah's account of his injuries seemed implausible, but I don't have a medical or military background. Would anyone with expertise in such fields like to comment on the following?
Ishmael Beah says in A Long Way Gone that he received "many bullet wounds" in a firefight in Sierra Leone but kept attacking a village his squad was trying to take. He adds that after 24 hours, he and his fellow soldiers seemed to have achieved their aim.
Then they were attacked again, and he was hit three times in the left foot: "The first two bullets went in and out, and the last one stayed inside my foot." The third bullet, he says, was later removed with "crooked-looking scissors" by a "sergeant doctor" in the Sierra Leone army at a base camp. After leaving the army, Beah entered a hospital and was told that medical tests showed that nothing was "seriously wrong" and he would just have to take medications until his next checkup.
Quotes from pages 156–158 and 163.

Always Bling Bling – Shinier than Diamonds
Lane Woods Jewelry combines perfect craft with the romantic design of every piece. We went away from natural diamonds due to the monopoly from suppliers which has made prices skyrocket. Instead, we partner with Asian and Belgian labs that grow moissanite diamonds, which are not only more affordable, but more brilliant than natural diamonds.
Our lab-grown moissanite diamond has a refractive index of 2.65, much higher than that of natural diamond (2.41). Similarly, Lane Woods Jewelry diamonds have a fire luminance of 0.104, more than double that of natural diamond (0.44). Try it out – there's no comparison, Lane Woods Jewelry diamonds are more brilliant.
Romantic Design and Exquisite Craftsmanship – A Perfect Combination
At Lane Woods Jewelers, we have perfected the craft of designing, cutting, performing, grinding and polishing diamonds, down to the finest details. Our diamonds symbolize romance that will always stand the test of time.
To make sure that every piece makes your loved one feel special, we use symbolism in our design inspirations so that there is a story behind every piece of jewelry we craft. This way, the romantic gift of Lane Woods jewelry is complete since your diamond exudes vitality and has more personal meaning.
Each and Every One of Gemstones Can Pass the Test
At Lane Woods Jewelers, we are proud of our work. Each moissanite diamond we sell will pass standard tests for diamonds. Try it yourself, take your gem to a diamond tester and conduct a thermal or electrical conductivity test – we guarantee that your stone will pass easily.
How confident are we? If your stone doesn't pass an independent test, we will not only offer you a full refund, we will also gift you with a free new gemstone. If that doesn't pass a diamond test, we will give you another one, till you end up with a diamond that passes all tests.
Unique Authority Certificate for Each Gemstone
When you buy from Lane Woods Jewelers, you will receive a unique authority certificate that accompanies each of our pieces of moissanite diamond. We employ objective third party labs who scrutinize every contour and facet of the diamond under their loupe or microscope, measuring and evaluating your gemstone so you can be confident of its value.

ASHLEY, ROBERT: Foreign Experiences
Travelling in from different planets, Ashley and the world's rappers agree to aestheticise logorrhoea, shock-jockery and loose language and to keep those texts a-coming (there are 84pp in the accompanying libretto book). Two speakers and a host of ghost voices and a synthesised 'orchestra', all hovering around single tones create a hypnotic, often funny, vicious, strangely gripping linear streams of sound/speech. The nuance is all in shadows and hints and fleeting references. No one else is doing anything like this and it's fascinating to see Ashley re-emerge with such a highly evolved, unplaceable but fascinating form pitched somewhere outside opera, rap, theatre, music and bar talk. Try this one. CD and book in slipcase.

Skier, 4 snowboarders killed in Colo. avalanche
DENVER — Four Colorado snowboarders and one skier were killed over the weekend in the state's deadliest avalanche in more than 50 years.
Clear Creek County Sheriff Don Krueger said search and rescue crews recovered the men's bodies from a backcountry area on Loveland Pass several hours after Saturday afternoon's slide, which was estimated to be about 600 feet wide and 8 feet deep.
Another snowboarder was buried and survived, but authorities have not released his condition.
The men were participating in a snowboarding event called the Rocky Mountain High Backcountry Bash to raise money for the Colorado Avalanche Information Center when the slide occurred.
Snowboarder Mike Bennett of Dillon told the newspaper he dug through hard-packed snow to help free the survivor before finding two others buried about two feet below the surface.
"They were wrapped around each other, below a patch of trees," he said.
Bennett said four of the victims were snowboarders and one was a skier.
Meanwhile, Adam Schmidt, editor in chief of Snowboard Colorado Magazine, told the Associated Press the event organized by Timlin, "ironically," was aimed at promoting backcountry safety.
The slide occurred on a spring weekend when many skiers and snowboarders took advantage of late season snowfall in the Rocky Mountains. Loveland Pass, which rises to an elevation of 11,990 feet about 60 miles west of Denver, is popular among backcountry skiers and snowboarders, but dangerous conditions are common in the area even in the spring.
Ethan Greene, director of the Colorado Avalanche Information Center, said a systemic weakness in the snowpack was exacerbated by heavy snow that fell on the pass over the past week and a half.
"It's been something that's been giving us problems all winter," he said. "But the snow storms that have been coming in this spring have just created a large slab on top of it."
Forecasters for the avalanche center warned skiers and hikers again Sunday of potentially dangerous backcountry conditions, saying the new snow has pushed the old snowpack to the breaking point.
On Thursday, a 38-year-old snowboarder died in an avalanche south of Colorado's Vail Pass. Eagle County sheriff's officials said the man and another snowboarder likely triggered the slide after a friend on a snowmobile dropped them off at the top of Avalanche Bowl.
According to the Colorado Avalanche Information Center, 11 people have died in avalanches in Colorado this winter season.
Greene said Saturday's was the deadliest in the state since 1962, when seven people were killed in a slide that wiped out several homes in the town of Twin Lakes near Independence Pass.
U.S. avalanche deaths climbed steeply after 1990, averaging 24 a year, as new gear became available for backcountry travel. Until then, avalanches rarely claimed more than a handful of lives each season in records going back to 1950.

NOTES from the UNDERGROUND No. 189 | July 8, 2009
(small press reviews #3)
Michael Kriesel, William Taylor Jr. & Karla Huston
The Light of Fields by: Michael Kriesel, 31 Poems / 68 Pages, Price: $5 (includes shipping), Propaganda Press / "Pocket Protector Series", P.O. Box 398058, Cambridge, MA 02149. Review by Charles P. Ries
"The Light of Fields" by Michael Kriesel was originally published in 1982 by Jump River Press, Inc. out of Prentice, Wisconsin when Kriesel was just twenty years old. It was one of Kriesel's first books of poetry and gave me the opportunity to visit this writer early in his career. One can certainly see the same careful, spare, almost Haiku quality to many of Kriesel's poems, and one also finds his wonderful ability to extract unique and unfolding metaphors from the heart of rural Wisconsin. I don't think any poet writing today can draw image from the rural farming environment like Kriesel. But what I also found was a young man focused on romance, reflecting on marriage. I often think that first poems are the most personal. They are the fertile ground from which art grows. If one reads Kriesel more recent books of poetry, we see him dancing between forms, extending forms, getting us lost in his numinous meanings, but in "The Light of Fields" we find Kriesel looking around and discovering his world for the first time.
Here is his wonderful title poem, "The Light of Fields":
"Wholly knowing the grasses sure / growing // the earth holding green breathing / beings toward morning / against the far dark between stars // and supporting each separate stem / bent away from the sun // Knowing these by the earth in you / deep with the nights of our sleep / and the light of these fields in you / easy I rest in your grain //Wholly knowing these grasses grow / over all death // and the delicate skeletons covered by / green raising past them // I love you / and lie down in your fields // unafraid of grass rising to cover me."
Let me also say this is a tiny book of poetry – just two inches by two and three quarters inches square. Leah Angstman who is the publisher of Propaganda Press calls it her "Pocket Protector Series". This is the seventh in her Pocket Protector Series. And while this book is tiny, it is packed with poetry. This was a wonderful opportunity to visit a writer as a young man and discover that his early work foretold the bright future Kriesel continues to have.
WORDS FOR SONGS NEVER WRITTEN: NEW AND SELECTED POEMS by: William Taylor Jr., 126 Poems/196 Pages/$13.95, Centennial Press, Charles Nevsimal, Publisher, P.O. Box 170322, Milwaukee, WI 53217-8026. Review by Charles P. Ries
"Words for Songs Never Written" is big, deep, and beautiful. In the small press, where doing everything on no budget is the norm; it is wonderful to see a publication that "looks" as good as this one. It is a perfect melding of content and medium moving a great book of poetry to another level. So who better to publish this full collection than Charles Nevsimal of Centennial Press, who has made a business of migrating anything between two covers into both visual and literary art. In "Words for Songs Never Written", William Taylor Jr. weeps in the mist of poetic transcendence as he examines the common miracles that live within and near each of us.
I first encountered Taylor's work eight years ago when I discovered his poem "Being Lonely" in Zen Baby (this poem also appears in this collection). It was such a remarkable poem of searching sadness that I never forgot it. "Words for Songs Never Written" again demonstrates why Taylor has attracted such a devoted following and such high praise from throughout the independent press. In his poem, "Eyes Like Something Lost" he writes,
"I didn't know her / I had never seen her before // but there was something / in her voice / and in her eyes // there was something / in the clothes she wore / and the way she moved // something in her way of speaking // that instantly told me / she was damaged // I felt a sudden kinship of sorts / for I am the same way / myself // I watched her from across the room / and wondered what the world / had done to her // I imagined the two of us / sitting in some quiet room / smoking and drinking / telling stories / 'til 4 a.m. // she had a frightened smile / she had eyes like something lost // and she was gone before / I could tell her she was / beautiful."
I asked him how he walks the line between pathos and hope, without falling subject to cliché. He told me, "In much of my work there is a certain mood or feeling I want to convey and I simply try to use the best words possible to do so. I don't know how else to explain it. I do believe there is sadness in beauty and sometimes beauty in sadness. To quote Thomas Hardy, If a way to the best there be, it exacts a full look at the worst. Meaning, the dark aspects of life must be confronted and accepted before any real peace of mind or happiness can be achieved. A kind of peace must be made with the darkness."
This collision of darkness and light, sadness and hope is well reflected in his poem, "Early Morning Just Before The Dawn":
"The bus moves along the freeway / beneath grayblue clouds / fading stars / and wisps of pink // I'm rarely up before noon / so I don't see this kind of thing / too often // there is something in me that imagines / if everything cold remain / just like this / things would work out / in spite of it all / but the sun crawls red / and slow to the horizon / like a wounded god / and soon, too soon, / all the bloody trouble will begin."
Taylor stands back from the world, sees its pain, its many blemishes, and yet celebrates the inevitable beauty of it all. When I was reading this collection I was reminded of the great small press poet, Albert Huffstickler, who passed away in 2002 and called poetry the sharing of "holy secrets." I believe that great poetry and poets convey this almost mystical essence in their work. It is what draws me and keeps me reading writers like Taylor. It is remarkable that Taylor, who just turned 40 years of age, can write with such life weary maturity. I am eager to see how he will continue to elevate and explain his pain, longing, and his unrequited search for perfect redemption. This is a wonderful poet, and great book of poetry.
AN INVENTORY OF LOST THINGS by: Karla Huston, 32 Pages / 23 Poems, Price: $8, Centennial Press, P.O. Box 170322, Milwaukee, WI 53217. Review/Interview by Charles P. Ries
Women have a distinct view of the erotic and love's secrets. In reading Karla Huston's new book of poetry, "An Inventory of Lost Things", I enter into the ebb and flow of feminine romantic imagination. While not all of twenty-three poems of this collection focus on the heart's yearning, a good number do and comprise the central theme of this eloquently written book of poetry.
Huston approaches her topic from a number of angles. In final stanza of her poem "The One on The Left" she says,
"But you can't take your mind off the boy, / barely twenty, going on the rest of his life – / going off for an afternoon at the shore. God knows / what they'll do on the blanket / when it's floated behind the vine-covered fence." And again these lines taken from the closing of her poem, "Your Marie": "You should know her hair was chestnut, / a flag of copper stars glittering / against the curve of her neck / and the strand that kissed her cheek / I knew you'd kissed when she left you / for the last time while her hips rolled / when she walked away / and her breast swayed in dreams / even now the ones you prayed into."
Her book of poetry would easily fall into the category of great chic lit. Huston poems are thoughtfully narrative and carefully designed. There is no spare air in these poems. Each is complete from beginning to end.
I am reminded, as I read this collection, of the seminal book on women's sexual fantasies, My Secret Garden by Nancy Friday. Our two genders reflect so differently on the erotic and on romance. Huston is masterful at understanding the sensual wonder world of the woman. As in this section from her poem "Rewind" demonstrates,
"If she could, she'd take the first / bus out of happyland, find her own / little place and read sweaty novels / for the rest of her life. He's weary / of the honey-I'm-homes / and the honey-dos and the honeyed / hams." And again from this section of her poem, "The Plastic Surgeon's Wife": "When they make love, she fears / how he'd like to improve her – / a little lift there, a little tighter there, / fill her breasts with vanilla, / admire the suction in her soul — / his reservoir, never full."
This is a wonderful exploration of the feminine mind, by a writer uniquely suited to explore this undulating landscape of passion, yearning, and lost things.
